 Posted: Sat Nov 02, 2024 5:21 pm Post subject: Using Lilo with GPT and PartUUID |
 |
|
Just found this on a Slackware Thread about how to get Lilo to work with a PARTUUID
| Code: | | append = " root=PARTUUID=00f34709-02" |
It's that simply but does require the lates Lilo V: 24.2
I'll be testing this by Year End (Christmas gift to myself) on a SuperMicro H12SSL based motherboard with an Epyc. Problem is that according to the Manual it's either Legacy (default) or EFI and my LSI 9300-16i is only visable in Legacy Mode if I want to boot and I can use GPT mode and now simply test the append and use the root=PARTUUID=xxxxxx-xxx as desired for the boot disk. It even gives me the option of multi booting the system using the partuuid of what ever I plan on testing while keeping all of my data safe on other drives.
